We had a great time this year. We set up on Thursday night, and had folks man the plane tables all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. A lot of good questions, hopefully some meaningful answers. I really do expect to see some of these folks at the Field to try their hand at it. A lot of good PR for our sport generated.
We also had a member donate the use of his computer and set up G2 Flight Simulator for the crowd to try there hand at, this was fun to watch, but also gave us a great chance to explain certain aspects of RC flight.
Here is a 4 by shot of our display of great planes.
Thanks again to everyone who has posted pilots (and other ) to this thread. PLEASE keep them coming. I was pleasantly surprised to see the stars appear one day, thanks for showing your support.

Don't know what he expects to happen, but it can't be good.

Very nice all around plane, attention to detail in every single corner, crevice and crease.

Finally I have the ability to upload pictures to RCU. I was the first person to respond, but could only describe my Mario Four *60 pilot. This is my first attempt to load a picture, so bear with me.

I thought I would show this one since it was a little different. This was a beautiful Corsair at the Toledo Show in 2002 that had some awesome scale detail shown through clear coating on half the plane.
Just wanted to thank everyone out there for submitting so many cool pictures, keep em'coming.
